The Privas PE38 is a 380mm frosted glass pendant in antique gold oneE27 globe to 25W, not supplied, on a2,000mm suspension.

The larger Privas is not the brighter one. Bothsizes take the same single E27 globe to 25W. The380mm gives no more light than the 280mm the form simply grows.

Choose it because 380mm is the proportion the room needs, not for output. Ifyou want more light, the answer is more pendants, not a biggerone.

Frosted glass and why that decides where it can hang

The shade is frosted, not clear or tinted, and that has one consequence thatmatters more than any other: the globe is completely hidden and there isno glare from any angle.

So the Privas can hang low over a kitchen island at eye level, above adining table where people sit under it, beside a bed without anyone squinting at it. Thetinted and clear-glass pendants in this catalogue cannot: their sources are visible and they have togo above eye level.

It also makes the globe choice simple. Because nothing shows through,brightness and warmth are the only decisions no decorative filament needed,and a warm 2700K suits the antique gold. (Against antique gold, cool white readsgreen.)

380 by 420mm a single statement

Slightly taller than it is wide, on a 120mm canopy with2,000mm of adjustable drop. At this size the Privas works as asingle piece over a dining table or in an entry, where the280mm is better grouped in a run over an island which,since both take the same globe, is also how you get more light.

Dimming depends on the globe. Our record saysNo; the datasheet says globe dependent, and thedatasheet is right nothing in a fitting holding one E27 prevents it. On a frosted shade,dimming is very good: low, the whole 380mm becomes a soft even lantern.Ask us and we will match a dimmable globe to your dimmer.

Questions

Is the 380mm brighter than the 280mm?

No both take the same single E27 to 25W. The form grows; the light does not. Choose it because 380mm is the proportion the room needs, and if you want more light, use more pendants.

Can I hang it low over a table?

Yes, and that is one of its strengths. The frosted shade hides the globe completely with no glare from any angle, so it works at eye level over an island or a dining table where the tinted and clear-glass pendants in this catalogue have to hang above eye level.

What globe should I fit?

A warm 2700K E27. Nothing shows through frosted glass, so brightness and warmth are the only decisions and against antique gold, cool white reads green.

One or several?

This 380mm works as a single piece over a dining table or in an entry. The 280mm is better grouped in a run over an island which, since both take the same globe, is also how you get more light.

Can I dim it?

With the right globe. Our record says No; the datasheet says globe dependent, and nothing in a fitting holding one E27 prevents it. On a frosted shade dimming is very good low, the whole 380mm becomes a soft even lantern.

How heavy is it?

Not recorded, for a 380mm iron and glass pendant. Ask us before the fixing is chosen.

Will it suit a bedroom?

Yes the frosted shade means no glare at close range, which is exactly what a bedroom pendant needs.
